Memorial Day Parade

The South Lyon Area Historical Society will again march in this year's Memorial Day Parade on Monday, 5/27/24. Our theme will be "The 1970's". We are looking for participants to march or ride with our group, including those lucky enough to own a 1970's motor vehicle. Participants will need to wear clothing appropriate for the 1970's. Usually the parade participants meet at the beginning of the parade route near downtown Memorial Day morning at a designated time and place, to be announced. Please check back on our website for updated information. If you wish to participate, please call 248-437-9929 and leave a message, or email us at SouthLyonAHS@gmail.com
